Isn't this debatable?  TBH, this is the first time
I'm hearing about it.  I've looked it up, and
indeed it seems to be useful.  That said,
shouldn't this be in org-contrib?  Too many
features in a tool - featurism - may be
distracting, in the sense that you focus more on
your tool than work at hand.  And that said, to
work around this, I reckon that's why (?) we have
org-contrib.  You - the end user - install what
you want/need.  Just my 2¢.
